I took the 1 hour oral glucose tolerance
test and it came back at 156. Normal is
anywhere between 139 and 144. So I have
been scheduled for a 3 hour glucose test
to determine if I have gestational
diabetes. Is 156 considered high?
Since yesterday I have been checking my
sugar. I checked my sugar when I got home
from work and it was 105 then I had a
salad for dinner and an hour later I
tested and it was 118 then I took an iron
pill and tested and my sugar level was at
129. This morning I tested and it was
114. Are all of these levels normal or
too high?
Please respond! I am really nervous and
scared about tomorrow's test.

Thanks.
Well I went for the 3 hour glucose sugar
test and it came back normal. Thank god!
I think what was causing such a high sugar
was the late night snacks.
